Problems after last software update :o( N8 on PAYG...

Hi, hoping someone can help plz.
Did a recent update on my PAYG o2 N8 (only just realised it was optional!!) and since then my phone has gone crazy, loosing settings etc
It's lost my internet settings and when I launch OVI it does not connect (just blank screen) I have now figured that I can get online by using my wlan (at home) and then opening a page from bookmark, Long winded but works.
As far as MMS goes I cannot send one!! I could okay before the update, but despite getting the settings again from o2 (in case that was the problem -it wasn't) I can't send any it just says failed everytime (
Also, the size of the texting buttons has changed and make it really quite small to text when you have slightly larger fingers, and older (ish) eyes. Anyone else found this a problem?
Any suggestions would be great, was wondering if I could actually restore factory settings or something to get rid of the new software updates, is that possible?
Oh and it keeps switching itself off and it never did before.
I have no nokia centers near me so any help would be great
Cheers

@Bellasmum
Welcome to the forum!
Unfortunately there is nothing you can do about change in texting button size introduced in Symbian Anna update as you can't downgrade the firmware once updated.
If you go to Menu > Settings > Phone > Phone management > Factory settings - you could try "Restore" which is the less destructive of the two available options and default lock code is 12345 unless altered by yourself; more details to be found here:http://europe.nokia.com/support/product-support/n8-00/faq#07
Inability to access Ovi Store can be difficult to resolve if something has gone wrong and you may have to accept workaround for now.
If you go to Menu > Messaging > Options > Settings > Multimedia message > Access point in use - is o2 MMS defined?
Presumably you had not taken a backup of your N8 using Ovi Suite on PC at any stage?
Happy to have helped forum with a Support Ratio = 42.5

Problems restarting iMac with iPod plugged in after last software update

Hi everyone,
I have an almost 2 year old 24" iMac Intel, running OS X 10.4.11 and a 30gb iPod video.
I've been having problems with restarting after the last software update. When I went to restart my computer as required for the update, it shut down, started up (the start up sound came on) and then went to just a blue screen for about 10 minutes or more. I got worried and shut down by holding the power button. Then I turned it back on and the same thing happened. So I shut down with the power button again, unplugged my iPod and external HD, turned the computer back on, and everything started up as normal. So I figured it had to do with one of those. I found that when I've started up with the external HD plugged in everything is fine, but every time I restart with my iPod plugged in, the same thing happens!
This has never happened before, and I've never had problems with my iMac before this... Can anyone help?
Thank you!

Hi, try-> System Preferences->Start Up Disk->ensure OS is highlited.
Some Macs find it difficult to Start/ReBoot when an iPhone or iPod is connected, it's as though the computer is searching to boot from an external HD. I would Repair Permissions & do the SMC reset.
Leave the iPod/iPhone unplugged @ reboot...L

IMac doesn't work after last software update

After last Apple software update (new Safari and security stuff), my iMac 20"/2GHz enters in an on/off loop. It starts but it doesn't manage to load the OS, it shuts off, it restarts, it shuts off and so on.
Does anybody have the same problem?
Thks

Was your update download interrupted in any way? if so, then the computer is trying to find the downloaded files and because the download wasn't completed then it's causing the loop. That's exactly what happened to me. My computer was shutting off intermittent and it did on an update download, so it caused a loop at that's now your case, then never mind.

N80 problems after last FW update

I have the following phone:
Type:RM-92 (N80-1)
Code:0527480
FW version:V 4.0707.0.7 (28-03-2007)
After upgrading to this firmware, I was faced with two rather irritating problems.
1) I've made a backup of the phone. After upgrading the FW, I restored the backup. Now, when I power up the phone, it says "Installing" after it boots up. Then, after a couple of seconds it says "Untrusted software found on memory card, install manually blah-blah". I installed all but one of these "untrusted" files, but I cannot remove from the list one which I no longer need. Application manager is set to allow all aplications and never check certificates online. Question is how to remove this sis file which I no longer need and which is, probably, causing this to happen.
And a mental note to Nokia, if they ever bother to read this - don't try to make the phone smarter than it should be - if I say I want to allow installation of all software, do not bother me with "untrusted" stuff.
2) a bigger problem is that service commands do not work. Tried entering them on the standby screen and from messaging/options, same thing happens. The phone says it's "requesting" the wanted data, but no reply from my service operator appears on the screen. It's not a probem with the operator, as other phones work correctly

I have problem too, after last update my N80 my national language (czech) was delete, and next problem with untrusted software I have too

Time Capsule not working after last software update

I bought my time capsule 3 weeks ago. Set up and worked like a charm (I use airport express for my wireless network). After I downloaded the latest software updates a week or so ago, I got a message that my computer could no longer recognize my time capsule. Since then the time capsule light only flashes amber and wont appear in airport utility.
Any ideas?
Thanks

I was having problems with the 7.3.1 firmware as well. For me, in manifest as though the internal disk had went bad--a blinky amber light and a "Disk needs repair" error. Rolling back the firmware solved it for me.
To do this:
--Open AirPort Utility.
--Click on your TC.
--Click on the "Manual Setup" button.
--When the configuration summary pops up, click on the word "Version".
--From the "Upload" drop-down list that is on the new pane that pops up, select "7.3", and click "Ok".
--Once it reboots, it'll be at 7.3.
Hope this helps. I'll be waiting a few weeks after 7.3.2 comes out to upgrade. I'm not real impressed with 7.3.1. As far as I can tell, it broke more than it fixed.

Starting Problems after installing Software Update SecUpd2009-001ppc.pkg

Hey Guys,
After installing the SecureUpdate from January 2009 today my iMac just seems to freeze at startup. Only thing appears is the grey apple and the loading animation.
*Already tried Disk Utility, fsck, and Safe Startup.*
+-Disk Utility doesn't find any problems+
+-fsck doesn't find any problems either+
+-Safe Startup just doesn't work+
What i found here in the discussion forum is the solution with the terminal. Only thing is that I won't get further till following point 6:
*(post from nleoncavallo )*
0. Use a second computer to download the update to a USB drive. (in theory, I imagine the update is somewhere on the hard drive, but I don't know where)
1. Boot from the original install CD (pressing the "C" key while the computer starts)
2. Get up to the point of the installation screen, then start Terminal
3. type "mount" to see a list of the volumes
4. type "find /Volumes/thenameoftheUSB/*.dmg" to get the full path of the update file (so you can copy it and paste it in step 5).
5. type "hdiutil attach /Volumes/thenameoftheUSBdrive/pathoftheupdate/SecUpd2008-008Intel.dmg" (now you have mounted the update file)
*6. type "/Volumes/Macintosh\ HD/usr/sbin/installer -pkg /Volumes/Security\ Update\ 2008-008/SecUpd2008-008Intel.pkg -target /Volumes/Macintosh\ HD"*
7. Exit Terminal and select "Startup Disk" and reboot.
I _already checked Typo_ and i am really going crazy about this. What terminal replys:
+"-bash: /Volumes/Macintosh HD/usr/sbin/installer: No such file or directory"+
Can somebody help me?

Thank you for your fast reply!
Maybe I should have made it clearer. This problem I've got adheres with the software update I've installed. I tried the solutions out you send me with your link but they didn't help me out. Thing is, that i forgot to say:
After a while the grey screen disappears and instead a blue screen comes to vision. But thats it. Then nothing happens anymore.
So far, the terminal thing gives me the most trustful feeling in this. So I still need help!

Connection problems since last software update

Since the last 2 software updates on August 19 (Security Update 2009-004 and Safari), my internet connection is very slow and sometimes breaks down. This is most apparent when streaming music breaks off repeatedly (which never happened before) or when even clutterless sites such as Google take a long time to load. I am running OS X 10.5.8 on an iMac (2008) with Safari 4.0.3, but Firefox also runs slow, so the problem might not be with the Safari update. By the way, another Mac running on an older version of Tiger and connected to the same router is connecting without problems.
However, Network diagnostics says that my Internet connection seems to be working properly.
I am certain this has to do with the last updates and am wondering if I am the only one experiencing these problems? What can be done?

Hi Gerrit,
There is obviously an inbuild error in the last system update. Some portables suffer from this speed slowdown only when connected to power while everything is fine when working on battery. There is an patch for it (10.5.8AirPortUpdate1.0), sorry I dont have the entire link but you should find it).
Mine is suddenly slow when connected to a secondary monitor and the browser window is moved there, whule everything speeds up to normal when moving the brwoser window to the power book - no matter if it set as the primary or secondary monitor.
I am looking for urgent help mayself for almost a week and do not understand why the Apple folks are´nt dealing with the issue. Hope there is a solution soon.
Regards,
M.

Airport/Internet Problem Since Last Software Update

I am having a problem with my airport not connecting to my wireless network(s). I have an airport express at both home and work and it is doing the same. My computer will find the wireless network in the list but I can't connect to the internet or email, although I can connect to other users on the network successfully. It seems to be an internet configuration that is causing the problem. It worked fine until I ran software update. Is there something in the last update that may be causing the problem?

Fixed my own problem but not quite sure why it worked. I logged in as another user and had to manually enter my keychain password for the wireless network I am using. I then logged out and logged back in as the admin user and it automatically asked me for my password for keychain access. I entered it and everything works fine now. The system seemed to be having problems accessing my keychain for some reason...

Administrator password stopped working after last software update

Since last automatic software update (I know have Mac OS X 10.7.5 in my MacBook Pro), when prompted for the administrator password with new software installation or to unlock the "lock" in the system preferences, the following happens: the password is accepted as valid (no error message appears, and the password window dissapears), but nothing happens:
- For new software installation, the "Install" button appears again, and upon pressing it, I get prompted again for administrator password, and the process gets looped into these 2 steps.
- For unlocking the system preferences, the password window gets closed but the preferences are still locked.
It seems that my password is valid, because if I purposedly enter a wrong password it lets me know it is not correct, but it just does not unlock anything or just not get accepted as before!
Now I also see in the tool bar at the top right of the screen my name (I am the administrator and only user, I never created any alternative account), this was not there before.
Can anyone help me to solve this problem, please?
Thanks!!
Monica

I guess I misunderstood your original post. You are logged in, but you can't authenticate as an admin.
Back up all data.
If the user account is associated with an Apple ID, and you know that account password, the Apple ID can be used to reset your user account password.
Otherwise, boot into Recovery by holding down the key combination command-R at startup. Release the keys when you see a gray screen with a spinning dial.
When the OS X Utilities screen appears, select Utilities ▹ Terminal from the menu bar.
In the Terminal window, type this:
resetpassword
That's one word with no spaces. Then press return. A Reset Password window opens.
Select your boot volume if not already selected.
Select your username from the menu labeled Select the user account if not already selected.
Follow the prompts to reset the password. It's safest to choose a password that includes only the characters a-z, A-Z, and 0-9.
Select  ▹ Restart from the menu bar.
You should now be able to log in with the new password, but if the password is different from the old one, you won't be able to unlock the Keychain. If you've forgotten the Keychain password (which is ordinarily the same as your login password), there's no way to recover it. You’ll need to reset your keychain in the preferences of the Keychain Access application.

Apple TV audio problems after latest software update

Updated my AppleTV last night with latest software update. Completly lost sound through my home theater system. Only hear audio on the TV. Anyone else having this problem? Apple TV is sure buggy...about ready to chuck it out the window!

Check your Dolby Digital settings in audio Settings.

Time Machine and FileVault: Change after last Software Update?

Hallo there,
A lot of people seem to switch to Leopard because of Time Machine, but according to the reports, the user experience has got nothing to do with reliability. So let me describe what is going on here concerning Time Machine.
I am using the German Version of Moc OS X Leopard with all recent software updates installed. I will try my best to translate the messages in the user interface. As mentioned above, I work in a user account that is encrypted wih FileVault. For Time Machine I have a 320 GB USB Harddrive from Lacie. Since I am having a MacBookPro, the USB-drive gets connected when I am at home, which means 2 or 3 times a week.
With the first verion of Leopard, everything seemed to work like described: I had to log out of my account and Time Machine would start to write an encrypted sparsebundle to the USB-harddrive. Now, a few updaes later, the situation appears as follows:
1.) When I log out of my account, there is no message that Time Machine backs up my home directory; neither can I notice any activity from the USB drive.
2.) When I open the Time Machine configuration in System Preferences, it tells me in the line with the "Next Backup", that it will start, when "Mac is connected"; but even if the backup drive is connected, nothing seems to happen.
3.) When I click on the padlock in the bottom left corner of the preferenes panel of Time Machine, the padlock will have opened by itself the next time I log in to my account.
4.) When I open the backup drive in the Finder now, I can no longer find the encrypted sparsebundle; instead there is a new folder next to the "Macintosh HD" folder, that holds all the contents of my home directory unencrypted... but: its content is out of date!
If anyone here has an idea what all this means and if there is an option to get an automated backup that really works, I would be glad.
Thank you.

I can't comment on the history before 10.5.3, but FileVault and TimeMachine are working ok for me with 10.5.3. Not ideally, because TimeMachine backs up only after a log out, and because you can't use the snazzy galaxy interface to restore individual files. However, the problems here have been exaggerated in the blogs. It is easy (and even good practice) to get in the habit of logging out at the end of the day (or even more frequently, as at lunch). TimeMachine will then have a nice series of stored snapshots. Restoration of individual files, rather than the entire volume, requires--gasp--a bit of "manual" activity rather than "galaxy" activity. One opens TimeMachine, figures out what time slice is appropriate, and proceeds by double-clicking to get to the saved volume for that time slice. Then one double-clicks to mount it, entering the password. Then one goes into the mounted disk, finds the file or folder that had accidentally been deleted or corrupted, drags it to the desktop, and then drags it to wherever it should be. Not exactly a big deal. Compared to the non FileVaulted situation, it's clunky, but still very nice in comparison with most backups and infinitely better than depending on occasional backups.

IMovie 11 crashed after last software update

I have a MacBook Air (mid 2011) with last Lion update. After I mede this week sofware update iMovie 11 cannot open, it tries but crash after a few second. If I push reopen in the crash window report it crashed again. I read in this forum that is happening the same in MacBook Pro, with Lion and with Snow Leopard too. Any idea?

Thank you, Thank you, Thank you!!!! That worked! I haven't used my iMovie in awhile and I wanted to edit a short clip when it started to act up and crash. Thanks to you I was able to follow you directions and everything is working fine now.

My phone got completely erased after last software update

Hi,
What's wrong with the latest software update for the iPhone? My phone got completely blocked and had to erase it and can still not activate it. Lost all my data, anyone else experienced this problem?
Best regards,
Tim Metz

Don't quote out of context:
Your follow up indicated that you don't actually have a problem activating your phone at all.
You don't have an activation problem.
At this stage, though, I don't care. Figure it out yourself.
You are the one who is being insulting.
Next time, try clearly outlining EXACTLY what your problem is. You do NOT have an activation problem. You appear to have not bothered to back up or extract your photos before you attempted to update your phone.

Tiger doesn't start after last Software Update

Hi,
this morning I ran the new Update for Tiger and since then the system doesn't restart. Instead it keeps hanging on the grey start-up screen for hours.
What can I do?
Regards,
Nils

Use Disk Utility to verify/Repair the HD, then Repair Permissions then reboot, if the problems persist try reinstalling the update...
But don't use Software Update to get it, use this...

Can anyone help me with iPod/iTunes syncing problems after recent software update?

Hi there,
I wonder if anyone can help me. Last week I updated my iPod to the latest software (8.2). Today I deleted some albums from iTunes and added a few others. I also made some changes to a few of my playlists. I then synched iTunes and my iPod. However the synching has not worked.
When I connect my iPod, it shows up in iTunes pretty instantly. When I click on sync, I can see in iTunes that it is syncing and also on my iPod, but the changes do not appear on my iPod afterwards. Also, after the first syncing attempt, I lost two-thirds of my album cover art. So, I lost covert art, but no other changes were made. The albums I deleted from iTunes are still on my iPod and the ones I added to iTunes are not on my iPod.
I have looked at the music on my iPod while connected to iTunes. I can see the songs/albums I have added are there, but they appear in grey and have a doted circle (to the left) next to them. This shows that they have not synched (I guess).
I have already restarted my McBook Pro and iPod a few times. I synched my iPod with iTunes after every restart, but it has not made any difference. I also deleted the music I added to iTunes and added it again. I synched iTunes and my iPod after this, but it has made no difference.
I would appreciate any suggestions.
Many thanks
Summary:
Updated iPod to iOS 8.2.
Made changes in iTunes i.e. delete and added music
iTunes and iPod show they are synching, but changes to not appear on iPod.
Also lost cover art on iPod after synching.
Products:
iPod Touch, latest generation
iTunes 12.1.0.50
MackBok Pro OS X Mavericks (10.9)

Thank you for your reply. I followed your suggestion and restored my iPod to its factory settings. I then restored it from a backup file. All the problems have been resolved. Quite incredible that I had to go through that process to fix it. I hope Apple will find a solution to the iTunes problem soon.
